Apple reveals record sales for latest iPhones

Apple has said today that they have sold 13 million new iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, a new record for three days of availability.

"Sales for iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus have been phenomenal, blowing past any previous first weekend sales results in Apple's history," said Tim Cook, Apple's CEO. "Customers' feedback is incredible and they are loving 3D Touch and Live Photos, and we can't wait to bring iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus to customers in even more countries on October 9."

Furthermore, Apple says the phones will be available in 40 more countries starting October 9th, and in 130 countries by the end of the year.

The strong early sales likely bode well for Apple's quarterly earnings moving forward, as there had been worries about the struggling Chinese economy.
